i hate being a boy

i hate being told to man up when i am afraid, i hate being called weak, i hate being looked down on because im not a macho man who objectify’s women, i hate struggling to find friends because guys are all douches and girls always think your hitting on them, i hate trying to find a girlfriend that is genuine, i hate girls can pick from 15 different guys that are hitting on them while ive never been asked out in my life, i hate being told im not allowed to cry because im a boy, i hate being expected to make every decision because im a boy, i hate being told to man up, i hate being expected to sit there and take everybody’s shit, i hate being treated like a child and expected to act like an adult, i hate being told i cant like things because they arent manly, i hate being told i cant have hair longer than 2 inches, i hate having to take my shirt off at the pool or else im afraid, i hate being called a beta male because im sensitive.I hate when girls act like we have it easy when society nowadays ponders to them, I hate knowing that if my future wife and I divorce theres a 80% chance she will get my children. I hate having nobody to cry to. I hate knowing that 79% of suicides are men. I hate that people think men cant be raped. I hate that people think men cant be abused when ive been abused. I hate that people think men cant be sexually harassed when ive been sexually harrassed. I hate that society doesnt care about boys

edit:this sub is so much more supportive than r/unpopularopinion, where i was told i need to talk with my dad, and that im just weak and pathetic.

edit 2: this post has both restored and made me lose some hope in humanity, thank you all for being kind and those who were mean please grow up <3

go ahead and downvote me like everybody else
